Changing Skins

Good morning,

I'm trying out various features in cutenews. I used the default skin and that seems to work OK so I thought I'd try the other skins. I tried selecting Compact and later tried Simple. When I make the change in the System Configuration and then Save nothing changes when I reload the web page. I tried exiting and restarting the browser - IE11, Firefox and Chrome - but I only saw the default skin displayed. Is there something else I should do to activate a different skin? The blog can be seen at www.innocente.us/blog.php

Thanks,

Tony
